proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors

Motion and touch as a method of communication from computers to human beings is not well developed. In any event, this is still important. The human brain receives large-scale information concerning the locations of parts of the body from proprioceptors that monitor muscle movements. The brain also gets tiny-scale information about touch and texture from mechanoreceptors in the skin. Combined information from proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors tells you about tangible attributes of things in the environment. More: Force-Feedback (Immersion) may also be worthwhile if you find this interesting.

We all make connections with computing systems in a host of ways. As an example, just watching a screen and typing is an interface. However, without the immersive, engaging, and intelligent characteristics one could specify, these connections do not met the criteria for Virtual Reality (VR). Linked page Virtual Tours Glendale, California also has further VR developments.

Virtual Robots covers these issues as well.
